for light does the darkness most fear.

I'm becoming more and more myself with time.
I guess that's what grace is.
The refinement of your soul through time.

If that doesn't happen, none of this is worth it.

Being part of the natural world reminds me
that innocence isn't ever lost completely;
we just need to maintain our goodness to regain it.

If I could tell the world just one thing
it would be we're all okay,
and not to worry cause worry is wasteful
and useless in times like these.
I won't be made useless.
I won't be idle with despair,
I will gather myself around my faith.
Light does the darkness most fear.
- Jewel

Through Love and through Beauty, we achieve immortality.

so be kinder to yourself;
have fun, take chances. There are no bounds.
- Jewel

Maybe our hearts were just next in line.
Maybe everything breaks sometime.

You have to realize: OK, I don't know how
to solve a political problem,
I don't know how to solve the pollution problem...
all I know is in my own life,
I need to figure out some sense of purpose,
I need to figure out how to be happy...
and I'm willing.

In case you failed to notice,
in case you failed to see,
this is my heart,
bleeding before you,

We all should choose our friends carefully.
I used to think that no one could know me better than somebody else,
because you're inside yourself, your body, you can't see yourself.
If you think like that, you surround yourself with
other people who are willing to tell you who you are,
which are usually judgmental people ...
we should really surround ourselves with the ones
that adore us and believe in the highest of us.
- Jewel

You always feel better when you sing.
Music touches people's hearts.
You know, it doesn't go through your mental capacity,

and move yourself at the same

Gather yourself by the sea shore and I will love you there.
Assemble yourself with wild things,
with songs of the sparrow and sea-foam.

A man who will Kiss the Flame.

and when I got signed to a record label I thought,
"How odd that I'm doing a record before a book of poetry."

Another day, another dollar, another war, another tower
Went up where the homeless had their home.
- Jewel

I'm having a bad day. I am not size six.
My legs are not skinny as sticks,
and dammit, someone's got to pay.
I'm afraid that I can't satisfy myself
and that my happiness depends on someone else.
I feel weak, so you're gonna take the fall.
You're so shallow.
